  • a smart person wouldn't buy those wheels.
    unless they were part of a farmyard display at the petting zoo

  • Didn't Dogs' buy a pair? I resteth my case...

  • Thanks, just what I was looking for, I worked it out at 558 based on their profile, but I will go with that. Now whether to snowflake or not?

    Rep added

    Snowflake would look sweet on that rim.

  • fuck they're not that bad... they're on a forumengers bike - see the names and faces thread, i think they look alright*. they were machined from memory...

    *having said that I don't think I'd buy a pair.

    up up up!!!!!!

  • built a pair of 36h 700c front radial and rear 4cross on monday. seem pretty strong, not that hard to build either, slightly more movement that deep v's

  • i want them in blue.

  • I want them in black...

  • you all would

  • my main objective is to reduce spoke length... fuck the hipster deep v look

  • Having never built a wheel before, how hard is it? and any vital tips?
    I have read the sheldon page about building them and it sounds a piece of piss, but I suspect it may be harder than he makes it sound...

  • it is. have some one who knows show you how

  • i bought over a pair of glossy white ones for someone here in germany. they're lush.

  • I think i'll build a black one into a new rear wheel.

    They get a bit of a hammering here. And this forum gets a mention too.

    sorry i don't believe you.
    want shorter spokes? use smaller wheels :-)

  • I anyone riding these rims still alive? Or is it just it's too cold? Or you've all bought open pros and mudguards! ha.

  • deep-v's shatter at 5° or lower

    they are fine... HTFU and build one dude!

    mine has been perfect - strong & true (32h, 3x, rear).

  • Alright then I´ll get one in black for the front wheel, should compliment the not-so-deep rear black wheel.

  • I bought mine from Wheel and Sprocket. SJS hubs and Taurus deep V rims for £80.

    Fast delivery, perfectly round, perfectly true, had a fair bit of abuse now and still just fine.

  • yep mine are still going strong. i love them.
